Questions? Give Us a Call

Have you ever relocated only to discover your important documents were missing? Need a birth certificate while on the road? Ever tried navigating the VA claims process? AAFMAA is here to help.

Expand your AAFMAA membership benefits with Premier Services for as little as $5.95 per month. Premier Services are designed with the needs of military and veteran families in mind. Protecting your family and all that you’ve worked for during your service gives you peace of mind. Premier Services will help you get there.

Disability claims are made for chronic conditions that were diagnosed during active duty military service, an injury that happened while on active duty with chronic residuals that are still being treated, or a presumptive disease caused by military service such as Agent Orange conditions.

When you sign up for AAFMAA Premier Services, a professional, full-time VA claims coordinator will guide you through the entire claims process — from filing your claim to analyzing and explaining your award decision to providing guidance on additional benefits.

The VA claims process includes the following steps:

We validate your service-connected conditions

We assemble the forms and evidence which include medical Service Treatment Records

We submit the claim to our partner the Disabled American Veterans (DAV)

We communicate with you throughout the entire process from claim development to explanation of the decision and benefits awarded

What you need to know before you start your VA claim:

We must have your DD214

We cannot assist you with a pending claim

We cannot provide representation for an appeal

The claims process takes time and patience

At AAFMAA, we use the VA Fully Developed Claims (FDC) program. This substantially reduces claim processing times, which may result in a quicker decision and faster compensation payment.

Submittal of claims to the VA and follow-up of all claims is done through AAFMAA’s partnership with the Disabled American Veterans (DAV).
